The Rocket

The Rocket is Aron Nelson's modified version of Gus Smalley's 3 Transistor Fuzz. Basically it's a Fuzz Face with an emitter follower in front of it. Just about any medium to high gain transistor will work. Not a bad idea to socket some of the capacitors and try different values (see Aron's schematic and notes for more info). The pots are meant to be mounted on board from the solder side with the board perpendicular to the bottom of the pots. Also, I tried something a little different with the PCB layout. I think it's a little more professional looking and should use less etchant, tho maybe a bit more printer toner.
